I loved my time at King\u2019s, and I would definitely recommend for all study abroad students to consider applying! Going into the semester, I was nervous\u2014after all, you can only study abroad once\u2014but it turned out to be a decision I will never regret. Here are my top three reasons why you should consider KCL for your semester abroad.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of the best parts about KCL is how it actively fosters a diverse campus\u2014more than 40% of King’s students are international students. I loved meeting people from all over the world through my modules. KCL is also a progressive campus that is aiming to better represent their students. During Students\u2019 Union election cycle, I was struck by how passionately students advocated for policies and procedures they believed in. King\u2019s study abroad program and King\u2019s dorms also regularly hold fun activities and study breaks so that you can hang out with new friends and detox from any academic stress.<\/p>\n
KCL\u2019s campus is directly integrated into London, which means you can literally step outside the doors into the center of the city. Walking to class never fails to be exciting\u2014plus, it\u2019s super convenient to grab a quick breakfast on the way to school. London never runs out of fun activities, but if you\u2019re hoping to travel, London is also a central site for international flights \u2013 most airports are an hour away by public transportation and you\u2019ll be able to find amazing flight deals.<\/p>\n
Walking to class or the library, you\u2019ll find yourself reading the KCL posters around campus of King\u2019s alumni who made world-changing contributions such as Virginia Woolf and John Keats (I\u2019m an English major so I\u2019m OMG at these two\u2026scroll through the \u201cList of King’s College London alumni\u201d on Wikipedia to find your cup of fangirl tea.) You\u2019ll be reminded that it\u2019s their footsteps you\u2019re walking in\u2014and I can tell you, it\u2019s both intimidating and inspiring. Not to mention you\u2019ll also be learning from professors who are contemporary experts in their field. King\u2019s academic work will challenge you, but it\u2019ll also be fun, and you\u2019ll learn a lot. At KCL, surrounded by people who are passionate about what they study, I was constantly reminded of why I love my major.<\/p>\n
From the world-leading academics to the huge libraries of resources to the fantastic faculty, professors, and students, King\u2019s friendly campus welcomes you from day one. Thank you King\u2019s College London for one of the best semesters of my life!<\/p>\n
